What would the new Arc be about and what do you want the new Arc to be about?


Recommended Posts

I would love for the new Arc to be about the wilderness and civilization of the constant while continuing the two last Arcs, it would add more wilderness to the constant and advance the civilization in the constant, 4 updates for the wilderness Sky, Land, Ocean, Cave, and 3 for the civilization Pig, Merm, Cave people ( Splumonkey, Rocklobster, Bunnymen, three of them is in the same level of intelligence, one just have the ability to talk ), and 1 for the New reign and Return of them Arc.

Considering all the things that happened in the Return of them arc, I would hope we would see the consequences caused by all the things that Charlie was doing, maybe finally know what her plans are, and well I guess we also would see more of Wagstaff.

You two just have the same idea, but what would be on the other side of the portal?

Hmm, thats a good question, but I don't think we can know jaja, the last portals that were open took the survivors to the Forge and Gorge events, and I'm not even sure if those were other worlds/dimensions or just a very far part of the Constant, like Hamlet and Shipwrecked.

A new arc where there's a portal in the ocean. The narrative will allude to all kinds of sinister and intelligent beings of great power being a threat to the constant. We'll get content that allows us to safely traverse dangerous waters and fight off the guardians to the ocean portal. Then the arc will conclude having found out... The beings... Were among us all along. The portal will never be open. Fin.

Then another arc where there's a new portal made of mushrooms in the forest. The sentient mushrooms people are eldrich plague horrors that threaten to bring diseases and mushroomy gloom to the constant, except, the mushrooms where among us all along. The arc will conclude with the portal sticking out like a sore thumb mid forest never to be open.

Then another arc, this time a portal arising from Wendy's massive forehead. The devs promise never before seen storytelling and amazing wonders that will await us. But before that, a new revelation! Turns out, we all have massive foreheads all along and in everyone of us a portal to our hearts. Never to be opened. 

Pretty sure the games going to continue where Return of Them left off (Wagstaff doing Wagstaff things, Charlie doing whatever she’s up to, Crazy Moonstorm Shenanigans- we already have hints of new boats/redesigned boats & new places to sail to and explore in those boats..

Klei has spent a massive amount of time in the past year or so adding more and more content for this “Boat” from fishing bins, to lightning conductor rods, to faster sails and more… with skins for said boat conductor, mast, etc.. 

We have a vessel they clearly want us to spend a lot of time on/with… now we just need more places to sail our boats to beyond one tiny lunar island, a large overgrown tree biome with Grass Gator and Water Stryders or a salt stack cluster infested with cookie cutters.

I would love to see new LAND Biomes that require you to use the boat to SAIL to the same size and scope as the first Return of Them biome or larger…

Islands with their OWN weather patterns, resources, mobs, biomes & Unique never before done gameplay mechanics.

Heres a few examples: A Frozen Tundra.. the ground is made of sheer Ice so characters & enemy mobs now “slide” across its surface making movement a little more difficult, in addition.. harsh blizzards happen frequently here requiring you to use more then a Thermal Stone to stay Warm. Most Mobs would obviously be adapted to cold climate such as Winter Koalephant and Snow Primeape.. maybe that Unused Snowman Monster mob..

Lost Egyptian Temple: For this one the “Unique” Gameplay mechanics is the ground itself- It’s made reversed type of a Quick Sand.. where standing still for too long will cause you to sink into the sand, becoming slower and potentially suffercating in sand if you let it go over your head, Scorpions, Snakes, Desert Sandworms can be found here (and they can come up out the ground randomly at any time like Florp fish appear to do in Shipwrecked instead of giving the player a “Hound Wave” Warning.. But don’t Worry- They’re Weak and super easy to kill.. it’s being caught off guard/ slowed by the sand sinking that will kill you.

My point is to stress that there’s only SO MUCH Klei can do in terms of Content that requires us to stay attached to the platform of that stupid annoying Wooden Boat…

I LOVE the way the boat controls/moves… but in the end, your confined to limited movement space on a Wooden platform- when the two above examples showcase unique Gameplay Mechanics on new LAND Biomes..

And that’s the direction I’m praying Klei has planned for future content.

But we won’t get to any of that till sometime mid 2023/ early 2024.. right now: They got a Roadmap schedule to stick to.

Maybe said new Arc will be centered around Constant's progression/evolution over in-game seasons/years, akin "Through the Ages" concept. New weather, new seasons, new true randomization, biomes progress, new flora & fauna, specific mobs, AI mobs development with passing time (also morphological changes) etc. Perhaps.

Wagstaff.  In the picture you can see the gears that are both on his crafting tab and on his machines.

or gears could equal wx and the other part which is a part of the alchemy engine could be wilson but it's most likely about wagstaff and charlie playing competitive punch out

Civilization + Nature, the evidence is right there, Gear with plants.

The Arc name is Constant retribution, the update name is Terror forming ( the constant is being terraformed by Charlie and Alter so it wakes the constant up ), Wailing whale ( old ocean got wish granted by the constant to make the old ocean lives live again) ( Key item voice of the ocean ), Loaning melody ( the constant terraforming is starting to affect the constant civilization, the pig is starting to think of strange questions like the economy, jobs, home planing and started to advance at an alarming rate is this some greater power doing? Or is the constant fighting back? ) (7 new jobs pigs ) ( Key item melody of the pig ), whirring whisper ( the sky is lonely, it have all the secret but none to share with so the constant grant it wish by having a connection to the sky shard ) (Key item voice of the sky ), marshing chord ( the merm start to focus more on the military side of civilization, with new 3 merm troop type and 2 merm crafter type disater could strike at any moment and the merm will alway be ready ) ( Key item chord of the merms ), molding moaning ( the moaning of the molding cave the cave is slowly molding away so the constant grant it wish to co-exist with mold, the mold are now alive and also have intersting effect on the survivors ) ( key item voice of the cave ), forbidden notes ( the cavling are Bunny, rock lobster, splumonkey, are focusing on the scicenc part of civilization they live under pile of ancient knowledge of what and what not to do, fuel by scinece and a little of magic they have 9 new reseacher and 3 new exploer would they follow the same fate as the ancient only time will tell ) ( Key item notes of the caveling ), alluring roar ( the roar of the land grow louder and louder each day till finally it release a blast of energy and empower the land of the constant and giving the local fauna and flora new power ) ( voice of the land ), song of the constant ( by combining all 7 orbs the power of the constant is fully relase ready to battle any foe trying to destroy it ).

There is my idea for DST Arc, there was a way longer version I just accidentally deleted it.

Gathering Mysterious Energy that awakend Atlar.

You mean the Altars ? Wasn’t the survivors put the altars that awakened the celestial champion ? I’m so confused about this and have so many questions.

Time to play the whole game again cuz I dont remember seeing her collecting energy or much more.

Thanks for getting back to me on this.

Wagstaff vs Charlie arc. Wagstaff wants control of the constant and it trying to use moon energy to get it. Charlie is defending her reign using shadow magic. The survivors are sitting in the crossfire

After this, I'd love to see Professor Mourier from the Wendy drop to arrive as a actual character.  Basically to give a jungian shadow to contrast with Maxwell. spiritualism versus esoteric eldritch maneuvers.

Wagstaff's main motivation behind his actions is to bring the power of the fuel into the modern world in an attempt to advance society as well as his own creations. I doubt he will try to control the Constant or take over the nightmare throne, why would he? He doesn't want the Constant, he only wants what it has and is willing to use any supernatural force currently there to get what he wants and Bring it Back.

My theory? He acknowledges that the Constant is currently impossible to escape from for humans and is trying to find a way to link the modern world with the Constant using resources on both sides to form a connection and siphon out the alleged limitless fuel.

I can imagine the new arc being about modern advances and the effects of Wagstaff's actions. Pipes reaching through portals, rooted in Nightmare Fissures would be the start of it, what else could happen I don't know. Nevertheless, I trust Klei's vision going forward with the new arc.

After our survivors defeat Ancient Fuelweaver and get sucked into the Forge (and Gorge), what you'll see at the end of the Forge trailer is Charlie harvesting some white energy from the Ancient Gateway.

After our survivors end up back in the constant, a piece of the moon falls to the ground in the Turns of Tides trailer, presumably due to Charlie's actions,

THEN our survivors start the quest of gathering the Celestial Altars and I guess technically it was Wagstaff that angered Alter by trying to harness the energy for his own goals, but at the end of the day, the one who set things into motion was Charlie, as Charlie has acquired the Tragic Torch, revealing the true nature of the "moon" and is last seen in the Ancient Archive biome, presumably on her way to open the Sealed Gateway, which remained sealed even after the Archive was powered on.
